    Secession

    No, because the only thing that would fix the underlying problems would be sold out by the politicians that you support. Like Reconstruction and Denazification.

    Theoretically: Chinese military VS Japanese military. Who would win?

    China would lose devastatingly in a war against Japan simply because of our defense agreements. Any country on Earth that the US isn't aligned with is using mainly outdated equipment. Not to mention any build-up to a seaborne invasion force coming from China would be noticed by American...

    Secession

    I'm talking about the Continent, not people that have grandparents that remember being part of a territory. Besides, how many people do you really think would vote for independence for any single state? Say good bye to anything dependent on a share of tax revenue from 350 million people. Any...

    Secession

    How so? The last time anyone tried to secede from the Union they tried to acquire, my military force, Federal property, weaponry, and rations. Not to mention the attempted murder/imprisonment of American soldiers. How could a secession come about any other way?

    Secession

    I suppose it doesn't, but I'm sure levying war against the United States is also generally a bad idea.

    Secession

    Section 10. expressly forbids it. "No State shall enter into any Treaty, Alliance, or Confederation; grant Letters of Marque and Reprisal; coin Money; emit Bills of Credit; make any Thing but gold and silver Coin a Tender in Payment of Debts; pass any Bill of Attainder, ex post facto Law, or...

    Does the US Prison System Need Reform?

    The problem is knowing what crimes are the result of poverty, and which ones are because people don't care about the laws of this country.

    Does the US Prison System Need Reform?

    That's a pretty good idea. Although I would force the "honorable" offenders to march between prisons. It's punishment, not vacation.

    Does the US Prison System Need Reform?

    I think the prison system could be made to where it's so terrifying of an experience nobody ever goes back, like an indoctrination center built around punishment. I also disagree with prisoner rations and exercise allowances. A terrible yet pretty accurate example would be the Kwanliso system in...

    Exploring Some Specific Gun Rights Issues

    Yeah, I'm going to make that tread later tonight.

    Exploring Some Specific Gun Rights Issues

    Gotcha. I don't think I should be allowed to kill either, but I seriously don't expect the state to either. See, I think someone that would steal a weapon would do so simply to commit a criminal act, so I think the punishment should be severe. I may start my first thread in the Law and Order...

    Pentagon Study finds Beards Directly Related to Combat Effectiveness.

    It could also be a placebo effect.

    Exploring Some Specific Gun Rights Issues

    Well, I'm the same way. I think we'd agree that the only way constitutional gun regulation can occur if the entire criminal code is reformed. See, I think if someone steals your property, you should be able to notify a government official, track your weapon down, and kill the prick that took it...

    Pentagon Study finds Beards Directly Related to Combat Effectiveness.

    I can't stand the facial hair fad with my generation. I've always taken not shaving as a sign of laziness.
